The villa was not very large by Hendrix's standards. The total area of the villa was about three hundred square meters. Of course, for an ordinary family, it was a luxury to live in it. The villas that Hendrix had purchased previously were all much larger than this one.

But I preferred this one. This villa was the most comfortable one he had bought. The villa's color scheme was an inviting, light yellow.

The furniture was not leather but instead covered in luxurious, umber, soft fabrics. The hall was filled with photos of Anne and me. Some I've never even seen before.

Some of them were him and Anne. Judging by the pictures, it looked like they were taken after I left Jarold City. There were also photos of Hendrix, Anne, and me together. Most of the photos were candid, from the time when he and I sent Anne to school.

I name the feelings rushing through me. I didn't know if I liked it or hated it.

I felt a burning sensation behind my eyes. I looked away, instinctively wiping away the tears that had trickled down my face.

Needing a distraction, I went into the kitchen and boiled water. I found the tea leaves and cut some fruits from the refrigerator.

The decorations in the villa reminded me strongly of the house in Jarold City.

When I came out with the tea and fruits, I found Hendrix looking down at the documents, Rowane next to him looking at if she had something she wanted to say.

I noticed that although the dishes lay on the table, unpacked yet untouched.

Rowane was definitely unhappy to see me.

"Here comes the tea. I don't know what kind of tea you like to drink, so I only made some Earl Grey tea!" I said and put down two cups of tea.

Hendrix raised his head from perusing the document in his hand aside and said to me. "There's juice and milk in the fridge, specially prepared for you."

I looked at him in astonishment. Then I forced a smile to cover my shock and nodded. "Thank you!" He didn't continue to say anything. He looked over at Rowane and said, "The design of this project is very good but many details still need to be listed and discussed. We need to contact Sebastian about Lancille Village. After all, this project is related to the Milton Group!"

Rowane nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, I understand. Why don't you eat something? You've been busy the whole morning and it's almost one o'clock. If you don't eat, you might get gastric!"

Hendrix nodded but then unexpectedly placed the lunch box in front of me. He said, "Have a taste!"

I stared at the golden egg rolls in the box in amazement. It looked as if it was very delicious.

The greedy part of me desperately wanted was a taste but since Rowane brought it for Hendrix, it felt strange for me to eat it

I tried to refuse. "I've just had lunch so I'm not hungry. You go ahead!"

He looked at me expressionlessly and said, "I've also just had lunch. I'm not hungry either!"

Rowane's expression was becoming more and more upset. It was, after all, a kind gift. It wasn't polite for us to reject it like this.

Finally, I said politely, "Miss Zanes, can I have a try? The egg rolls you made look very delicious!"

Rowane nodded. "Yes, please try it!"

I took a bite and the flavors exploded in my mouth. The rolls were sweet, its fragrance soft. I had to admit that Rowane's cooking was really good. Remembering that Rowane's purpose was to let

Hendrix taste her cooking. I had an idea.

I glanced at Hendrix. When I saw him looking back at me, I said, "Mr. Roberts, have a taste. It's really delicious!"

He raised his eyebrows. I thought that he would refuse, or take a roll for himself. I did not expect him to say, "Feed me!"
